Using crystals (like "5 crystal") is highly recommended because the enemies in Africa are level 50's or so. Try not to lose and you'll earn the Shell Shield. Get to the weapon shop and attack the owner. Enter Aphrike (Africa is easier so I'll call it that) and avoid the empty spaces. You can do this at any point of the game on NORMAL mode only, in Story you'll have to wait a while. Using this strategy will make you very powerful. Even if you aren't a magic user, it will protect from whoever does use magic. Go to the left side of the bottom floor and open both of the red chests in the area.(one is invisible, to the north next to the white loot space) This will get you the shinobi shield, one of the best shields you can obtain at this point in the game, and the dream rod, one of the few weapons in the entire game that increases your magic by more than 10.(The next weapon like that is one of the rarest and most powerful weapons in the game) If you are a magic user, you might keep this weapon for most of the game, and this is one of the only ways to obtain it. In story mode, as soon as chapter 3 begins, go to the item store and buy two magic keys, then enter the lava cave. Start by writing it down then end it with – Added by (user name here).

Adding your own strategy to the page helps others find better ways to play.
